    Is it? It’s where most people still post publicly, and until someone unseats Twitter on that throne (which I hope is really soon) no other network is going to compete in terms of having the users people want to follow…

      The bigger shocker to me is that the platform still exists at all… didn’t the largest advertisers pull out? I thought it was hemeraging money. I keep waiting for them to pull the plug on it, or at least sell it at a huge discounted price.

      Shitter is just one website. If I post to mastodon, people on hundreds of websites can see my content. Why on earth would I post to shitter if I wanted visibility???

        Because one website with millions of users is more reach than 100 websites with few users. Doesn’t mean you should use Ex-Twitter but it makes it understandable why lots still do

          Millions of users is a bit of a misleading term. You mean millions of Nazis. I don’t care to talk to Nazis.

            I do. Because some of them might be able to be brought to reason. I still don’t use Ex-Twitter anymore though, since they’ve blocked third party apps.

        What if you want visibility with the idiots on Twitter? A place built by idiots, for idiots.
